Lets meet The Counterfeit Saints. Introducing St Jason the deciever.



Originally selling his soul for a chance at super-stardom. St Jason was duped by the almighty lucifer and was not given any real talent at all. He can barely play his bass and cannot sing. He will soon be replaced. The only positive aspect of his being in The Counterfeit Saints is that he is very rich.

Lets meet The Counterfeit Saints. Introducing St. Mark.



Originally hailing from the windy city, Chicago Il. St. Mark spent the last few years traveling the country avoiding creditors, warrants, exes, wage garnishments and federal taxes till he could travel no further west and ended up in Los Angeles. The Countefeit Saints discovered Mark on a lovely saturday afternoon in Venice California. Trying to drown out and scare all the hippies from twirling, banging on drums, being smelly and generally anonoying Mark positioned himself next to their drum love circle and played blast beats at 292 bpm on a drum set consisting of trash cans, buckets, and his own chest. Like roaches in a lit room the hairy, unemployed group scattered from his rhythmic assult and left the beach defeated with burning sage in hand. Impressed with both his drumming and community service skills Mark was immediately asked to join the band.

Further Proof that Germans have great taste in punk rock:




Those bad ass punks from the other side of the pond at pogoradio are again proving that Germans have great taste in punk rock. And apparently they had a very tasty pizza.

Fact: Germans have great taste in punk rock.

Proof:

See that chick winkin' at you. Click that shit. And you will have your proof. Those bad ass mofos over at Pogoradio in Germany have played the greatest punk band in the universe: The Counterfeit Saints. It took weeks of tedious negotiations (mostly over money, and us not understanding them cause they speak German) but in the end, the proof is in the pudding. Germans have great taste in punk rock.

Pictures from our show last night!!!! Dec 08, 2009 The Waterfront Marina Del Rey


Last night the Counterfeit Saints played for a butt load of people at The Waterfront in Marina Del Rey California. The crowd was estimated in the hundreds as you can see in the photo above. Daniel was given a free helicopter ride as a prize for winning the Guitar Center 09 Shredfest Guitar Solo Championship last monday and was able to take the pic just moments before the Saints took the stage.

Needless to say Brian the patron saint of drinking was working his magic on the crowd as usual.

One of the biggest surprises of the night came when Micheal got up from his drum set, transformed into Godzilla and fucked a huge menacing dinosaur into submission. His response "Eh, no big whoop."

Jason found a loop hole that allowed him to smoke cigarettes on stage and the bar management could say nothing about it. He simply tried to break the smoking world record. Unfortunately this was the result:

All in all a pretty good show for The Counterfeit Saints. We made this much money (also estimated to be in the hundreds):

We also managed to rock the socks off the crowd, and we in The Counterfeit Saints think that's kinda important. All in all we here in The Counterfeit Saints think this picture sums up the night best:


Mainly because it was cancelled. Sorry ya'll. Our bad. Wait. Not really. Actually not at all. But! We will make it up to all you peeps out there with..... another free show!

The worlds largest public port trembles as The Saints come marchin' in. More to come.

Counterfeit Saints Demo


After taking third place at the punk rock olympics in '98 the Counterfeit Saints were awarded three gift certificates to Sizzler and a check for $43 dollars. Since they only recieved three gift certificates the band ditched Brian and commandeered his volvo for a whimsical journey to the local sizzler on wilshire blvd. By the time the band (sans Brian) got to said Sizzler they had spent the $43 check on cigarettes (for Jason) and bottles of cheap wine. None the less they vowed to tell Brian that the check fell into the toilet and there was nothing we could do about it. Another vow made that day was to record a demo. Here it is. It only took us 11 years to record it. Download it for free!!!
